Honda’s New NC700X Is An Adventure Scooter?
Honda has just announced a new 2012 model, the NC700X. The NC700X is officially listed as an adventure motorcycle but the company says that the motorcycle has plenty of the comforts that come along with a scooter.
The NC700X has plenty of storage room and can even be equipped with automatic transmission. So if you have to do some grocery shopping in a remote mountain range, this is the motorcycle for you.

The changes to ...

Rossi will ride the GP11.1 at the upcoming Assen. His teammate Nicky Hayden however won’t switch to the GP11.1 until the Laguna Seca round, July 22-24 as he has already gone through four engines this season and the GP11.1 would be his fifth of his allotted ...
